Comparison Summary
How the Safety Score Works
The safety score measures on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA reports per 1,000 enrolled students, computed from the U.S. Department of Education's OPE Campus Safety and Security Survey. It excludes arrests, disciplinary referrals, fire records, and off-campus reports. A lower score means fewer included reports relative to enrollment, not necessarily lower personal risk.
Score interpretation:
- 0.00-1.00: Very low incident rate
- 1.00-3.00: Below average incidents
- 3.00-6.00: Average range
- 6.00-10.00: Above average incidents
- 10.00+: High incident rate (investigate context)
A score of 0.00 may indicate excellent safety or may reflect reporting gaps. Always review the full crime statistics breakdown for context.
What to do with this incident tool
A safety score is one input - use it alongside the campus's full profile before deciding.
- Compare up to 4 campuses side by side above before narrowing your list. Search & compare
- Open a campus profile to see its incident categories and enrollment context, not just the headline score. Browse rankings
- Learn what counts as a reportable incident before treating a low score as a guarantee. How the data works
Safety scores reflect on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA reports per 1,000 enrolled students for the score-vintage year. They adjust for enrollment size, not time spent on campus.
Campus safety incident tool FAQ
What is the campus safety incident tool?
PlainCampus's campus safety incident tool (also called the Safety Checker) searches 5,585 Title IV campuses and returns each school's Clery Act safety score: on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 enrolled students, plus national rank when the campus is in the mid-to-large ranked cohort.
How does the campus safety score work?
The score is total on-campus Clery Act Criminal Offenses and VAWA reports per 1,000 enrolled students from the U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety and Security Survey. Lower is fewer reported incidents relative to enrollment. Treat it as a standardized reporting floor with lag, not a personal risk score.
Can I compare campus safety incidents across schools?
Yes. Search any school above, then add up to four campuses for a side-by-side comparison of safety scores, national ranks, and enrollment context. Open each school profile for the full category breakdown.
